I'll let the flaming to you guys. This should be good.

*edit* I should explain myself. I'm just saying that everyone will chime in with their 2 cents about what the kit looks like and why you want a wing and all that stuff. If you want to put something on your car, what do I care, even if it is ugly?

hmmm... check the homepage of www.maxima.org The red max has a wing that might look decent with that kit. I saw this car at a car show and the wing flowed really well with his car.

I don't know why I bother, but, here goes:

First off, you have a FWD car: The wing will do exactly NOTHING.
Second, why would you want to have a 4 foot board on the back of a four door sedan???
Third, Add a HUGE NOS sticker on the side (I'm thinkin' 3' letters) and the personalized license plate that says "Hi Officer" to make it easier to get you. Cops already know about the speed our cars dish out. You don't need to advertise more, trust me.
Fourth, did you have rice for breakfast.
Fifth, sorry to flame a noobie, but, and I think I speak for almost all of us here, it had to be done.

Now that that's over with and, hopefully, noone else will see the need to add to my rant, it's your car, do what you want to it, but if you're looking for a wing like that I don't think too many people here will have one. Try the Honda pages. You should find one there in no time. However, if you want to add real performance to your car, you came to the right place.

While I do agree that a CF wing would look disgusting on a Maxima, I have to point out something: have a look at his join date, and then have a look at yours.
Post count hardly implies knowledge.

Same can be said about the joining date for each member on this forum in regards to "knowledge". We're all here to share our "Knowledge" in some ways, not?

Oh, the rear wing on a fwd vehicle does nothing for performance except for looks (maybe reduce the coeff. of drag a little bit). Though I must say, wingless on the 5th Maxima looks better, IMO.
